Person: go do this
Me: I can’t I need space
Person: you can have space when you do the thing
Me: *puts on headphones and ignores everything just to do the thing *
Person: you can’t just ignore us that’s rude
Me: *is too overstimulated and overwhelmed*
Person: ugh spoiled
Does anyone else really like to wear headphones / noise cancellers? I’ve found that I always wear my headphones, even if they’re not plugged into anything or there’s nothing playing.
I love that my therapist agrees with me that the point of my treatment is functionality not sanity. Maybe for some there is a need to be sane in order to live how they want, but that is not the case with me.
I don’t need to be compliant to human’s beliefs in order to function and be happy. In fact, pretending I am human and that I think the same way they do is actively harmful for me.
Sanity is a concept made up by humans. They decide when a belief is acceptable, unconventional, or wrong. I would not be considered sane by most people’s standards. That does not make me wrong.
I am inhuman. I am me.

Creatures who have told their IRLs your nonhuman identity: how did it go? I’m currently considering telling my partner, but I’m just curious about other’s experiences!
(We have a really good relationship and I’ve already explained that I’m more of a snake than a human, but I want to tell her more about the alterhuman community in general.)
hfjsgdjshkfks idk what worse-
having lots of hyperfixations at once or not having any hyperfixations
when i have lots of them i get rly overwhelmed cus i just,, wanna do all of them at once and its like a constant need to be doing something related to all of my hyperfixations but u just CANT watch five shows at once or listen to music, watch a video, research, and do crafts all at the same time i just physically cant do that
but when i dont have any hyperfixations i feel so empty. my thoughts get kinda mixed up cus i dont know what to think about or focus on and im just constantly understimulated because of boredom and thats just miserable
